Approximately 20,000 whales migrate southward past the center from mid-December to end of January each year. The same number migrate northward, but are distributed throughout mid-March through the first week of June. Gray whales are the most commonly sighted whales year round along the Oregon Coast.
Though orcas, humpbacks, and belugas are the most frequently seen large cetaceans in Alaska, many other species spend at least part of the year in Alaskan waters. Gray whales migrating from Baja California pass along the outer coast of Southeast Alaska on the way to summer feeding grounds in the Bering Sea. In addition to viewing opportunities during migration, some individuals occasionally remain along Southeast Alaska's outer coast for the summer.
